QuadGT Arrived (56k warning)

[426hemi]

thanks, what is a safe max voltage on this cpu if my max temp at load now is between 33-35c?

[Ace-a-Rue]

you can try up to 1.5v actual voltage...you might have to push the other voltages up to support higher FSB, like: MCH, CPU vtt, DDR, DDr2 vtt and ICHIO.

[Revv23]

^Check temps on VRM, CPU, and NB

[Getttosmurf]

Agreed 1.36 is not much at all push 1.45-1.5 if temps are ok but i see custom wc in your sig so shouldnt be a problem = )

if that is bios setting versus actual setting then you are only getting about 1.38v for real!...there is about .04v undershot in actual voltage from what the bios is set....under load, in windows, the vcore will drop even more...my experience is about .02-.03v drop under load.

Just for infomation purposes:-

The links to the ftp servers for downloading the Bios ID: 11 (Latest Official Bios) have now all been fixed:- So basically if you go onto this website clicking on the Asia/Europe/US now works http://www2.abit.com.tw/page/uk/moth...pPRODINFO=BIOS I sent the webmaster a couple of e-mails.

The following directory on the ftp servers will hopefully be removed bios/qb9quadgt/ as that was the typo error directory it was created to in error.

Hope that makes sense.

any improve on the memory department with new bios? please tell me yes

None what-so-ever for me. I still can't pass around 530mhz and I KNOW my ram is capable of more.

EDIT: They this bios adds "Enhanced overclocking" and I have found no such luck. Where as before on the beta bios, 450x8 was completely stable, it now freezes as my windows is loading. I am extremely frustrated with this board. Maybe I got a bad one? I see people hitting 500fsb no problem and I cannot, for the LIFE of me, get near that. I've tried upping all available voltage options in bios with no luck. I know damn well my ram can do 500fsb. I know damn well my processor can do 3.6ghz. It is just so frustrating that a motherboard is what ALWAYS holds back my overclock.

I'm buying the DFI. Enough with this piece of junk. At least I know DFI engineers are working hard to make overclocking motherboards, not boards that disappoint. Hell, my USB ports don't even work on this board. Thumbs up Abit.

Just installed my new G.Skill BHZ memory. Hope I can get over 480 now.

My result with QuadGT

E6600:
4275MHz watercooled
475X9 @ superpi1M

500X8 @ superpi1M

445X9 @ superpi32M

500X8 @ Superpi32M


Quick Test of RAM stability,

DDR1000 CL4-4-4-4, 2.16V, memtest 100% passed


DDR1100 CL4-4-4-4, 2.44V, memtest 100% passed


Stability and temp. test of 24/7 setting, 400X9


FSB topped out at around 510MHz for benching only

[momomo6789]

seemed a lil slow maybe unstable the suicide run did

grwwww still can't get past 480fsb! vcore 1.475 mch 1.7 ichio 1.7 I should have stuck with Asus.

[MADMAX22]

hey guys figured i would post my stable (so far) setting using the B08 bios, havnt tried the new released version yet

Shouldn't need but 1.65V at the most to go reach 500fsb.

[blossa]

426hemi: I have problems passing 500MHz so you are not alone... When setting 500MHz I usually get bluescreen after 5-10 seconds, 498MHz FSB is very stable though:


Also, I cannot read temps lower than zero. How do I solve that? Guess waiting for a new BIOS...

[Ajfina]

im able to do 515FSB and some times i can do 525 (depending on mobo mood )

My problem exactly. Frustrating.

[blossa]

Well, I tried the Noctua and the HR-05 chipset coolers now. They gave me maybe 15-20MHz stable higher FSB. 498MHz is still max. With stock cooler I was limited @ ~480-485MHz stable.

520fsb

What NB-cooling do you use? (you might have written it before but my internet is slow I do not have petience to search. )

U asking me?
i use stock heatsink but changed the thermals paste for AS5 and removed the plastic also have a coolermaster tiny fan attach to it , i think AS5 helps a lot and removing all the crap in between NB and heatsink and same with PWM

which beta bios are you referring to?

[426hemi]

does anyone's bios still say v1.x(10) in cpuz when using the new official bios?

Wow!

[splmann]

My CPU is holding me back now. I looking for a Retail CPU because a ES CPU is not so fast as a Retail .
